Apple has increased its monthly iPad orders to its Taiwanese manufacturing partners to over two million units in July, according to a Digitimes report. Citing Digitimes Research analyst Mingchi Kuo, the report claims that Apple is estimated to have ordered roughly 2.3 million iPads in July with a mix of 58-60% iPad with Wi-Fi +3G models despite the Wi-Fi-only model’s stronger sales in the first half of the year. The iPad is currently available in the U.S., Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the U.K., and will launch in Austria, Belgium, Hong Kong, Ireland, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand and Singapore in July.
